    Obtain number which is highest multiple of specific constant

    hallo,

    please help me with a formula that will change (alter slightly), a number to become a multiple of a given constant. Example: If I have a value 1347.70, and I want this number to be a multiple of 7.50, the highest number would be 1342.50. Please help. Thank you all very much..

    Maybe =INT(1347.70/7.5)*7.5

    Please use below formula to alter the number

    Cell a1= 1347.7
    Cell b1= 7.5
    Formula in any cell =A1-MOD(A1,B1)

    Try this formula.

    =INT(ROUND(K17/M17;2))*M17

    K17 is your value 1437.70
    M17 is your value 7.50
